At TheAnonyViewer.com (the "Site," "we," "us," or "our"), your privacy is our top priority. We operate a free, anonymous Instagram viewer tool that lets you browse public profiles, stories, highlights, posts, reels, and videos without requiring login, registration, or any personal information. This Privacy Policy explains what information we may collect, how we use it, and your rights. By using the Site, you consent to the practices described here.
